Good news is it doesn’t affect us. We grow our own food, and have a healthy export surplus to send to the world.

The country most affected: China. They are by far the world’s largest food importer. XI might be highly motivated to reign Putin in.

We have a major fertilizer shortage, and huge price increase for what’s available, coming too.

Umm... NO

China has both cash reserves and profitable exports with which to buy food from other countries. Those most affected will be those food importers who do not have both large stocks of foreign currency and exports that are valuable on international markets. Thus those contries worst affected are likely to be in Africa.

“doesn’t affect us”?????????? better do a little more research. Affects us in many ways starting with a fertilizer shortage. Then other countries bidding high prices for what is produced.
